Pizza From scratch

1 pkg. active dry yeast(1/4 ounce)
1 cup warm water(110-115 degrees)
2 Tbs. oil
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. sugar
2-3/4 to 3-1/4 cus flour

 Dissolve yeast in water, add oil, salt, sugar, and 2 cups of flour. Beat on medium speed for 3 min. ( I prefer to mix just about every thing by hand, It may take a little bit longer but it still turns out okay) Add enough remaining flour to form a soft doug. Turn onto a floured surface; kneed until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a agreased bowl, turning greased side up. Cover and let rest in warm place for at least 10 minutes.
 Divide dough in half. On a floured surface, roll each portion into a 13 in. circle. transfer to two greased 12 in. pizza pans; build up edges slightly. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Spread sause over hot crusts; sprinkle with toppings. Bake for 20 minutes or until chees is melted.
